Congrats to Menagerie!

By placing second in the overall standings of the Calgary Aquarium Society's 2005 jar show competition, she has won one of these (which she will get just as soon as I have her new address):

Congratulations!! Way to go! Any chance of seeing a pic of the fish? Hint hint.

It was actually many fishes....each month at our meetings (except December) we have a jar show with 2-4 categories in which members can enter fish...points are awarded on placing in each category, year-end prizes are based on cumulative points....so Menagerie's placing is based on about 10-15 fish shown throughout the season. We award prizes for overall placings 1st through 5th.

I bet all were gorgeous fish!

I bet all were gorgeous fish!

Almost as gorgeous as the ones that won me first prize.

Thank you! That's kind of scary since I competed January through April 8O

Thank you! That's kind of scary since I competed January through April 8O

We just had very few competitors that entered more than 4-5 entries each, all year long....so plenty of people in the 3rd through 15th placings.

Congrats to you too Toirtis!

Thanks...I got a $159 gift cert to a LFS...as you might imagine, its burning a hole in my pocket.....going to turn it into some Corallife lighting or some L034 plecos, I think.
